This guy used to be Asst S3 at 7th Group HQ. Some here might remember him from there, Camp Rudder as an RI, or Nam.

Lecil Travis Martin, Col., USAF (retd.) a/k/a "Boxcar Willie": enlisted USAF in 1949, qualified as a B-29 flight engineer. Took a commission later on, becoming a rated pilot on that same aircraft. Pursued his country & western act as a part-time hobby while continuing his career as an active-duty "heavy" pilot (including the C-5A) until his retirement in 1976.

Fred Rodgers never served??? Wow... that was an old hand-me-down story from the guys in the Corps I knew, too...

The way I heard the Mr Rogers story, he was a Marine Sniper and wore the LS shirts & sweaters on the show to cover his full sleeve tattoos on both arms. I remember the first time I heard that one going "Wait... MR ROGERS?"
